Yes. I believe so. If u solve the equations you get x=1/2 and y=-1
Answer:
The mass of 150 books = 41.7kg
The number of books that have mass 20kg = 72 books
Step-by-step explanation:
(I) Number of identical books = 108
Mass of books = 30 kg
Mass of 150 books = ?
Let the mass of 150 books = x kg
To find the mass of 150 books we will use ratio and proportion:
108 books: 30kg = 150 books: x kg
You can also write it like this because ratio can be written in division:
108/30 = 150/x
By cross multiplication:
108x = 150*30
108 x= 4500
Divide both sides by 108
108 x/108 = 4500/108
x= 41.7
Thus the mass of 150 books = 41.7kg
( ii ) The number of books that have a mass of 20 kg = ?
Let assume that the number of books of mass 20 kg = y books
We will again use ratio and proportion method.
108 books: 30kg = y: 20kg
We can write it as:
108/30 = y/20
By cross multiplication:
108 *20 = 30y
2160= 30y
Divide both the terms by 30
2160/30 = 30y/30
72 = y
Therefore the number of books that have mass 20kg = 72 books ....
Answer:
A. 
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given a diagram. We are asked to find the measure of angle RST.
We can see that angle RST is formed by intersecting chords inside the circle, so its measure would be half the sum of intercepted arcs as:
Therefore, the measure of angle RST is 62 degrees.
The correct answer to this question is letter "D. x = 21, y = 14."
18 : 12
27 : x - 3
24 : y + 2
18 / 12 = 27 / x - 3
3 / 2 = 27 / x - 3
54 = 3x - 9
3x = 54 + 9
3x = 63
x = 21
18 / 12 = 24 / y + 2
3 / 2 = 24 / y + 2
48 = 3y + 6
3y = 48 - 6
3y = 42
y = 14
The correct answer should be 95. I don’t know how you did it but try the PEMDAS method (Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition, Subtraction)
